The PITH OF IT.-System of itself
is not enough. It is when system
and the right motives 60 together
when system is worked by churches
whose members have drunk in the
unselfsh self.sacrificing spirit of
Jesus Christ, and who know what it
it is to find their lives by losing
them, and the grandest results may
be expected. It is not usually char
acteristic of cold, dead, and worldly
churches that they employ system
at all in raising money for the Lords
cause; a magnificent system in the
hands of such church, could such a
thing be conceived of, would forcibly
illustrate the futility of all mere
plans of Christian giving that are
not set in motion and kept in motion
by the true spirit of giving. How
many are the churches that are
strong in numbers, in wealth, in
culture, and they have, perhaps,
adapted an elaborate plan of collect
ing their benevolent funds; but the
funds alas are insignifcantly small,
as compared to what they should be.
And why? Because the proper mo-
tive power is wanting; the benevo-
lent machinery is not closely enough
connected with the throne-lacks the
mighty propulsion of immortal love.
Great Importance attaches to sys-
TEN in giving; but more still to the
impelling motive. When this is
right-when protesting Christians
truly know the grace of Him who
who was rich, but became poor
that they through His poverty might
be made rich, the Lords Treasury
will contain all the money that is
needed to carry on His work.-Cana-
da Baptist.

serve not only their respect, but
what is of far more importance, that

Nor need this preservation of per-
sonal dignity SAVIOR one whit Of pru-
derry. You can be just as bright, as
merry and friendly while saying by
your manner should it be necessary,

by permitting these sentimental
demonstrations. They are not nee
essary to the good comradeship,
which is all that should exist or ap-
pear to exist between you and any
masculine friend until you are sure
that you possess the true and tender
love of the one man who has made
himself your hearts king, love
which holds you sacred, as every
true man holds the woman he would
make his wife and the mother of
his children. And believe me, even
if you are not yet certain that'this
prince loves you as you desire to be
loved by him, he will not be any

GRANT AND LEE AT APPOMATT0X.

Gen. Horace Porter, who was an
aide of Gen. Grant, contributes to the
November Century an account of his
last campaign, which is profusely
illustrated. From it we quote as fol.
lows: "The contrast between the two
commanders was very striking and
could not fail to attract marked at
tention as they sat ten feet apart
facing each other.
"General Grant, then nearly 4S
years of age, was 5 feet 8 inches in
height, with shoulders slightly stoop-
ed. His hair and full beard were
nut brown, without trace of grey
in them. He had on a single breast
ed blouse, made of dark blue flannel,
unbuttoned in front, and showing a
waistcoat underneath. He wore an
ordinary pair of top boots, with his
trousers inside, and was without
spurs. The boots and portions of his
clothes were spattered with mud.
He had on a pair of thread gloves, OF
dark yellow color, which he had
taken off on entering the room. His
felt sugar loaf stiff brimmed hat
was thrown on the table beside him.
He had no sword, and a pair OF
shoulder straps was all there was
about him to designate his rank. In
fact, aside from these, his uniform
was that of a private soldier.
"Lee, on the other hand, was fully
six feet high, and quite erect for one
of his age, for he was Grants senior
by sixteen years. His hair and full
beard were silver gray, and quite
thick, except that the hair had be-
come a little thin in front. He wore
a new uniform of Confederate gray,
buttoned up to the throat, and at his
side he carried a long sword Of ex-
ceedingly fine workmanship, the hilt
studded with jewels. 1t was said to
be the sword which had been present
ed to him by the State of Virginia.
His top boots were comparatively
new, and seemed to have on them
some ornamental stitching Of red
silk. Like his uniform, they were
singularly clean, and but little trav-
el-stained. On the boots were hand
some spurs, with large roWels. A
felt hat, which in color matched
pretty closely that Of his uniform,
and pair Of long buckskin gaunt-
lets lay beside him on the table. We
asked Col. Marshal afterWard how it
was that both he and his chief wore
such fine toggery, and looked so much
as if they had just turned out to 60
to church, while with US our outward
garb scarcely rose to the dignity even
of the shabby genteel.' He enlight-
ened US regarding the contrast by
explaining that when their head

PROF.. DRUMMOND ON AFRICA.

Prof. Drummond had travelled up
to Albert Nyanza from Zanzibar,
and spent several months in the re-
gion of the great inland seas, the
district of Stanley's early eXplora-
tions. He found the natives less
promising, apparently, than Stanley.
There were no words, the professor
said, to 60 to the root of the absolute
barbarity Of the equatorial African.
One could never know how alnaZ-
ingly simple and primitive creature
man can be without trip to Africa.
One stick served the native for
spear, fifty for house. The bark
of a tree was turned to use for a
canoe or for the utensil of cooking.
Beyond this the African had no
needs. 1t was next to impossible to
create new wants for him. He never
worked, if he could helpit. Now and
then he went out and stripped
square rod of trees with a knife, till
theground was Uttered with branch
es. These he burned, and the rich
ashes washed into the soil. Then a few
handfulls of millet were scattered in
the rows, scratched with hoe, and
the whole work of seasons agricul-
ture was over. The fertility of the
ground did the rest. The millet crop
came up and the African gorged him
self on it till the next season of plant
ing.
Millet, Prof. Drummond said, was
a tasteless sort of meal, cooked into
doughy porridge. But the natives
enjoyed it without tire. He had seen
them bolt Jumps of the stuff as big as
a baby at a single sitting. The peo-
pie, too, had absolutely no idea of
time. He had carried watch about
him for months to give to some chief,
but couldn't find one who could be
made to understand what it was
meant for.
The Central Africans had rich
morocco color, and beautiful soft skin,
which the professor even envied for
bindings for some of the books in his
Edinburgh library. But their life
was utterly vacuous; their intelli-
gence except in mere sense and in
stinct matters, null. He had 10 make
a figure himselfat amusing the chiefs
by buttoning and unbuttoning his
coat, clicking his pistol and burning
things with a sun.glass. But they
never showed a glimmer of compre-
hension or curiosity, and he finally
got to have good deal of sympathy
with the professional fire eaters and
sword swallowers at home.
Prof. Drummond found the mis-
sion station Livingstonia, on the
Albert Nyanza, deserted when he
got there. It was one of the most
beautiful spots in the world ; but the
pestilence, which threatened every
thing in Central Africa, had depopu-
lated it. There was no escape from
this poisonous malarial fever. 1t al
ways came. Quinine was the only
remedy for it. 1t attacked white and
black alike.
There are no earth-worms in Af-
rica, and Mr.. Drummond discover
ed that the shifting of the soil, which
Mr.. Darwin was found due in Eng
land to the earth-worm, was brought
about in Africa by the white ant.
The ant carried its castings up into
the decayed trees until the branches
were plastered up with dirt, and also
burroWed up the subsoil into ant
heaps fifteen or twenty feet high,
which the rains washed away and
scattered.

/ thank you for the information con-
tanned in your last cable. 1t gives me an
insight into the generous motives which
have prompted you to step forward on
Edward Layton's behalf, and am graft
fed in being associated with you in the
cause. When counsel finds himself en-
rapport with his client, it is generally of
assistance to him; he works with better
spirit.
Three days have passed since I wrote
and dispatched to you the second portion
of the narrative of my proceedings and
progress. was waiting anxiously for
something to occur-I could not exactly
say what-which would serve as an abso-
lutte stepping stone. Something has oc-
Cured which, although I have not yet
discovered the key TO it, will, I believe,
prove to be of the utmost Importance.
You will understand later on what mean
by my use of the word "key;" and when

not been unexpectedly called in to our
assistance, it is difficult to say. should
not have been idle, but it is scarcely likely
that, within so short time, my actions
would have led to the point we have now
reached. DR.. Daincourt has allowed him
self to be prompted by me to q certain
extent, and his interest in his beautiful
patient has been intensified by the friend
ship existing between us, and by the es-
TEEN we both entertain for Edward Lay
ton.
In accordance with the promise DIR.
Daincourt gave to Mr.. Rutland, he called
upon that gentleman on the day following
his first visit to the house. During the
interval Miss Rutlands condition had not
improved; it had, indeed, grown worse.
There was an aggravation of the feverish
symptoms, and her speech was wild and
incoherent. Perhaps it would be more
correct to say that it was wild and incc-

DANGEROUS DRINKs.-A barten-
der plaintively bewailed the neces-
sity of having to rub CONCEALED drops
of Sticky beer off the bar. "But if l
let them remain" said he, in the
tone of one seeking compassion,
"they rot the wood"
"They rot the wood, do they ?"
fiercely replied a beer bibbler. "Then
what in the name of common sense
does beer do to my stomach ?"
Replies the manipulation of drinks:
"It is beyond me to tell. OF one
think I am confident, and that is
mans stomach is made of cast-iron.
Elsewise how could he Withstand
the fluids he pours into it. Let me

knife.-PhiladeLphio Neaos.

THE MAID IN THE MOON.-We
are glad the true sex of the person in
the moon has at last been discovered.
According to the venerable astrono-
mer, DR.. Henry NJ. Parkhurst, it is
not a man that we have been look
ing at for the past three thousand
wears or more and making all sorts
of unkind jokes about, but beauti-
full young woman, whose name is
Selene. He says her face can be
plainly traced, and has made a pho.

insure more respectful treatment of
the moon, and is one of the happiest
astronomical discoveries made for
many a year.-Philadelphia Times.

ONE VIEW OF WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

A writer in Wonadn'S Journal, for
October Goth, has the following:
Here is what the Douglas (Wy.)
Bldget has to say of woman suf-
frage; and it is to be noted that al
most all papers published in Wyo-
ming Territory speak in a similar
strain
Sixty-six ladies voted at the recent
election, and the majority of them
were ladies in every sense OF the
term. Wyoming eXalts her women.
They are viewed in the light of ra-
tional, sensible human beings, who
are endowed with common sense,
and in every way qualified to vote
as intelligently as the men. Wo-
man suffrage has stood upon our
statute book for twenty years. 1t is
a good thing; we know it is a good
thing because we have tried it. At
Cheyenne, Laramie, Rawlins, and
all of the older town in the territory,
ninety-one women out of every hun
dred vote. The law requires that a
space of fifteen feet on each side Of
the polling place shall be kept clear
of every one but two challengers who
must be of good behavior. Carriages
are provided for the ladies, who are
conveyed to the polls and treated
with every consideration while there.
The man who should venture an in
decent or profane remark, or offer to
interfere in the least with a lady
voter, would receive a more severe
lick than the historical Billy Pat
terson, at the hands of the man near
est him at the time and good round
fine next day after a nights lodging
in the lock up. A lady at the polls
on election day is really less liable to
insult than when on a shopping ex-
pedition, or in the postotfice after
mail, when the room is crowded
with people on like errand: There
are ladies who are not ladies who
vote, of course; there are gentle
men who are not gentlemen, who
vote also. But the lady who is a
lady is not thrown into the society
of the fair but frail creature " hen at
the polls, any more than when she
passes her on the street. The fact is
that our women vote, and we are
proud of them for it, and all the So
called arguments brought against
woman suffrage by old fogies are not
founded on the rock of eternal truth,
and will not stand the light OF actual
experience.

withholds from me-"
He met with another rebuff. Edward
Layton declared that he would not violate
the confidence which Mabel had reposed
in him. At one time Mr.. Rutland said to
Edward Layton:
''My son has been absent from home
for several days. Have you seen him?"
eyes, sir,'' replied Edward, II have
seen him."
But he would say nothing further.
He was in o most painful position.
Mabel had extracted from him solemn
promise that he would reveal nothing
without her consent, and he was stead
fastly loyal to her. He had another rea-
son for his silence, and, in the light of
that reason, and of tho feelings which
Mr.. Rutland harbored toward him, he
felt that the happiness he hoped would be
his was slipping from him.
The explanation of this other reason,
which unhappily was n personal one,
brings upon the scene person who played
q brief but pregnant part in this drama of
| real life, and who is now in his grave
| This person was Edward Layton's fa-
ther.
"What was the nature of the relations, "
said Mrs. Rutland, ''between this gentle
man and my dear son Eustace I do not
know. All that I do know is that they
were in association with each other and,
am afraid not to q good end. 1t came
also, by some strange means, to the
knowledge Of my husband, and a frightful
scene occurred between him and Edward
| Layton, in which Mabel's lover was dis
missed from the house. My husband
withdrew the consent he had given to the
engagement, and used words which, often
since when I have thought of them, have
made me shudder, they were so unneces-
sarily cruel and severe. If from this
day. my husband said to the young gen.
tleman, you pursue my daughter with
your attentions, you will be playing a base
and dishonorable part. If you wish me to
turn my daughter from my house, you
can by your actions bring about this re-
suit. But bear in mind, should it come
